I haven't seen Maynelle in 10 years, but I knew her as a godly and loving woman with a gentle and quiet spirit. I am sure her homegoing has left a void that will never be filled here in this life. But what a celebration we will have when we all get to see her again in our eternal home.

Blessings,

Maynelle was a very dear friend of mine. Although I only had the pleasure of working with her and keeping her company for a short time, I thought of her as an angel. My condolences to the family. Becky Dowden
